    Question Recommendations for cable transportation?

    Hi all - I'm starting to get to a point between the power, audio, and DMX cables that warrants a better solution than random plastic totes. Any particularly-good storage/organizer solutions you've found for your cables?

    Currently....still totes here.

    When I had more packspace, I used workboxes like this: https://www.homedepot.com/p/Stanley-...FYNUAQodpkID1Q

    Something like this is the next progression: https://www.skbcases.com/music/produ...fset=&c=124&s=

    I would look for (Or build one yourself.) something like this.

    But the number of US Supreme Court judges was always 6.
    Then it was 5, then 6, then 7, then 9, then 10, then 7, and then 9.

    I should mention space is a premium - so that big rack of spindles isn't going to be an option - I'm really trying to avoid buying another vehicle just for DJing, but I'm filling up our Honda Pilot to breaking point. I was looking for something more with separators so that I wouldn't have to do as much digging. Maybe I'll stick with plastic totes for general storage and look at getting something like this to store what I primarily use for my gigs. https://www.amazon.com/Cable-File-Ba.../dp/B00BJ8Q49S

    I don't have an answer for you, but if your pilot is setup for towing, you could just get a cargo trailer.

    Very true... I keep forgetting about that as an alternative... knowing my driving skills it's a dangerous prospect though xD.. and man for some reason knowing having that gear sitting back there for some reason would make me so nervous!

    This is what I did and works great. 2 gigs and all my cables are organized. All the bags go in a tote.
